Notes:
- Try to limit your use of cotton on the trail. When cotton gets wet, it stays wet. Synthetics (like polyester fleece) are light and breathable, dry faster, and will keep you warm even when wet. NO JEANS.
- If you do not have any of the above equipment, or think you will need additional equipment (microspikes, etc), please email us at peakweekend@gmail.com to arrange borrowing/rental.
